How to Become a Supplier

UNHCR encourages suppliers to register their company with the United Nations Global Marketplace (UNGM). An application form is available on-line to register as a potential supplier. The UNGM is the common procurement portal of the United Nations system of organizations.

In addition to providing suppliers of goods and services an avenue to introduce themselves to the UN system, UNGM offers the possibility of automatic alerts of relevant business opportunities.

Suppliers wishing to do business with UNHCR in a specific region or country in answer to local/regional solicitations, shall request registration directly to the local/ regional operation. Suppliers may also contact Procurement Service in Budapest that accounts for the major part of international procurement.

Potential suppliers to UNHCR will be asked to duly complete the UNHCR Vendor Registration Form and submit it together with a copy of their certificate of registration to the relevant office. Incomplete submissions will not be considered. Suppliers may be eligible for registration, but are not necessarily qualified for a certain procurement action. This latter status is only determined after a pre-qualification or a tender evaluation exercise.
